5.4 Path Contours – Cartesian Coordinates
Straight line
To program a straight line, you enter:
• The coordinates of the end point
E
• If necessary:
Radius compensation, feed rate, miscellaneous function
The tool moves in a straight line from its starting position
S
to the end
point
E
. The starting position was reached in the previous block.
To program a straight line:
COORDINATES?
Identify coordinates as relative values.
Press the orange axis-selection key, for example X.
Enter the coordinate of the end point, for example 50 mm.
If a coordinate is negative, press the +/- key.
Enter all further coordinates of the end point.
After entering all coordinates, close the dialog with the ENT key.
